Weddings nowadays, as you see in many YouTube videos, always have something that makes them unique. Whether you break out into a dance with your partner, or you give a toast in the form of a musical, things are always changing. While the bride walks down the aisle usually to the classic wedding song, more and more people have decided to do something different with this tradition, too. For example, some brides now walk down the aisle to a popular or classic romantic song playing in the background.
The man in the video down below decided that instead of his wife-to-be choosing a song of her own, he would be the one to sing as his bride walked towards him. The video went viral because of its uniqueness and now has over 11,000,000 views.
With a microphone in front of him, Niall Donnelly sings “This I Promise You” by ‘N Sync while his band The Rockits accompanies him with the instruments. This song is one of the more popular ones by the late 90’s-early 2000s band, and Niall made it sound beautiful.
As the groom-to-be sings the song, the priest, the bridesmaids, and everyone else walk down the aisle of the small church. He looks nervous, but he continues to sing. His voice is powerful and gorgeous! About halfway through the video, Niall stops singing, and a woman continues with the song. At the same time, the man’s bride, Jill, walks out and down the aisle with her father in tow.
She looks gorgeous! The couple looks at each other, and they have huge, excited, and nervous grins on their faces.
Once Jill is standing at the altar, the couple holds hands, and Niall starts singing again.
Between the nerves and the emotion that he is feeling, as he sings, “My darling,” his voice seems to leave him a bit. He laughs it off, and so does the bride-to-be.
Their friends and family smile widely and clap for the performance once it’s over, and Niall pumps his fist in the air before giving Jill a sweet kiss on the cheek. (He’s doing everything right!)
The video, though beautiful because of the performance (and because of the abundant love in the air), is made even better because of the videographer’s skills. They manage to capture and edit the scenes, making it look like a beautiful romance movie — the one we all dream of every now and then.
